Mongo Clusters News & Announcements

Houston, Texas, November 29, 2018 -- Today, Cloud Clusters LLC (cloudclusters.io) announced the migration of its Cloud Application Management Platform to Kubernetes. It is a big milestone meaning that CloudClusters has built up a hosting environment to support Cloud-Native applications.

According to analyst Gartner, Kubernetes has been the de facto container orchestration technology in the market. This is why Cloud Clusters LLC migrates its CAMP to Kubernetes. The rise of microservices and cloud-native applications has fundamentally changed software development and deployment. Cloud Clusters LLC believes that Kubernetes will ultimately grow into a new role – a cloud-native operating system. Cloud Clusters LLC will seek to participate in Kubernetes development and give back to the community, which is its long-term strategy.

MongoDB Issues New Open-Source License for Community Server

Houston, Texas, November 29, 2018 -- On October 16th, MongoDB announced that it had issued a new software license, Server Side Public License (SSPL), which will be applied to all future releases of its MongoDB Community Server and patch fixes for prior versions. The new license requires that hosting providers who run MongoDB as a public service have to open-source their software that facilitate to make MongoDB available as a service.

“The market is increasingly consuming software as a service, creating an incredible opportunity to foster a new wave of great open source server-side software. Unfortunately, once an open source project becomes interesting, it is too easy for cloud vendors who have not developed the software to capture all of the value but contribute nothing back to the community,” said Eliot Horowitz, the CTO and co-founder of MongoDB, in a statement. “We have greatly contributed to — and benefited from — open source and we are in a unique position to lead on an issue impacting many organizations. We hope this will help inspire more projects and protect open source innovation.

Cloud Clusters is completely open to this change. We believe that each opportunity means a duty. In response to the license switch, we decided to open-source our Cloud Application Management Platform. Our development team takes it a chance not only to give back to open source communities but also to motivate them to set a higher bar for their software quality.

Houston, Texas, November 18, 2018 -- Cloud Clusters LLC (cloudclusters.io), a cloud application hosting start-up based in Houston, announced the general availability of the managed MongoDB hosting services (https://www.mongoclusters.com/) on the latest Kubernetes Orchestration Platform. Currently, a six months free trial enables you to get hands-on experience with MongoDB hosting at any service levels.

With the increasing popularity of cloud computing and big data, the demand to handle large volumes of heterogeneous and structure-less data resulted in the NoSQL movement. MongoDB is arguably the most dominant NoSQL database in the market. The distributed nature of MongoDB allows for great scalability. As a result, it is often the choice for applications that manage large volumes of unstructured data in the enterprise environment.

But the applications of MongoDB should not be limited only to large unstructured data. “We noticed that MongoDB is also being used as an exact relational database in many small businesses, partly because of its stronger transaction support in new releases.” said Morris Liu, the CEO of Cloud Clusters, “Its popularity and market share are still increasing. This is why we put our managed MongoDB hosting service at the very top of our list”.

Headquartered in League City near Houston, the company planned to launch several other database services in a near future. “The management team of our company has over two decades of experiences in web hosting and software development.” said Mr. Liu, “We believe that fully managed hosting is the best way to provide the most valuable services to our clients. Fully managed database hosting service is essentially outsourcing. This enables businesses and developers to focus on their core competency and software development without worrying about database maintenance.”

More and more applications are turning to Microservices architectures to exploit the advantages of cloud computing technologies, such as Docker and Kubernetes. However, the process for stateful applications, like databases, is much more complicated and challenging. We thoughtfully designed every layer of our infrastructures to accommodate the challenge without losing the advantages of Kubernetes and containers. Our Cloud Application Management Platform (CAMP) is still under intensive development and relentlessly evolving. Our goal is to provide enterprise-level technologies and services to small and midsize businesses.
